Antigua and Barbuda gained full independence from Britain on 1 November 1981, and this gold foil piece was issued to mark the occasion — one of a short series of commemorative "notes" denominated in dollars but never intended for circulation. The foil format was produced by a handful of specialist manufacturers in the early 1980s catering specifically to the nascent commemorative collector market, and Caribbean island governments were among the most enthusiastic clients.
Not legal tender in any practical sense. The $30 face value was arbitrary, chosen to give the piece nominal monetary standing without corresponding to any standard denomination in actual use.
